Hello,
The wild currants are flowering and the soft green spring haze is growing daily… I hope you are finding time to enjoy the outdoors along with all the wonders of a full island life. This report provides more context on the support service cost allocations of the previous report, the SRD’s WildSafe application, and new access to Strathcona Regional District corporate policies.
